Shit Muslims Say To Ex Muslims [COMPLETE LIST]

When you are a Muslim critical of Islam, or the next stage: an Ex Muslim; there are many ignorant things Faithful Muslims may say.

In Ex-Muslim online spaces, I asked users what are some common things Muslims say to Ex-Muslims? The results were overwhelming. Many different people came in saying common things with different wording, and finding ways to relate to one another overall. I posted every single comment word for word, so keep in mind these are comments directly out of an online forum type discussion. Also note that some things were repeated by different people in different wording, but I kept them here anyway to emphasize how common some misconceptions are.

“Happiness is not for this life, happiness is for the hereafter. This is just a test. We suffer and struggle now so that we can be rewarded later. I fear for you and am afraid if you do not come back to Islam we will not be together in the afterlife!”

“Yes I believe Muhammad spoke to an angel in a cave and went on a flying horse to jerusalem, pfft”

“You’re possessed by a jinn”

That is not you. That is Shaytan speaking through you

It’s OK, I think I understand. It isn’t you, it is a Jinn doing waswasa into your ears

[When I bring up indigenous communities of Pacific Islands and the Americas] “Don’t worry about them. Allah knows their fate. Just pray”

*Commenter said* They [the faithful] don’t say anything, there is a “swish” sound in the air and then your head is rolling down the hill.

“You’ll be back one day when you have kids”

Your faith (emaan) is weak

[C] When I expressed doubts about Islam one person said to me “you didn’t ground and solidify your faith enough. That’s why you lost it”.

“It’s all about faith.”

“Allah guides whom he wills, and misguides whom he will, but you’re still going to hell”

“You are deaf, dumb and blind, just like the Quran said”

You left Islam because of your culture, not religion

“You think you’re too good for the religion of your parents and grandparents.”

“You only left because you hate your parents

Your parents were abusive and you confused them with Allah”

Your family were too conservative, too strict!

“Your parents were too harsh”

“You don’t hate Islam…you hate the Muslims. That is not true Islam.

“You are focusing on culture and not the true Islam”

*passive aggressively tries to convince you to go on a trip to ICNA*

“Are you coming to pray?”*Commenter said* I get so much satisfaction when I see their expressions after saying “no, I don’t want to pray”

you’re not Somali if you’re not Muslim

An exmuslim Arab? But…how?!?!?!

My [The Commenter] sister in law about my wife: “Has she thought about her death? Is her dear husband going to cremate her?”

“this is why it’s so important to have a Muslim family otherwise you don’t have anyone to guide you in your times of crisis”.

So you don’t believe in the afterlife? In miracles? Astaghferuallah, brother! Be careful lest you go to hell!!!

Come on now, even you have to admit that the world needs religion and spirituality.

your wife is now halal for the taking

“There are scientific miracles in the Quran, how could you deny it?”

If God doesn’t exist, then who created the universe?

“I want to kill you”

“I don’t want to kill you of course, but in a perfect Islamic state it would be fine. It’s not a barbaric injustice because you would have 3 days to repent”

You looked so much prettier in hijab
